I was playing around with a USB-C AUX Power Supply that handles Data/HID on the single line. Dunno if it'll help, but here's what I cobbled together: https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/tam-aux-psu-for-expansion-card-s-in-development.5318/post-47217 The AK-USBSUPPLY-C board takes power...

Unsure this is the right place to ask, but setting up 4 "identical" ProBooks for three docks scattered around the place. One' ProBook's a bit borked, but its I7 is heading into my original Cherry I5 ProBook at some point. Wondering if the ProBook will "just know" that it's been upgraded from...

I've got five near identical HP ProBooks and three dock setups scattered around the place. Installed LinuxMint in the wee hours and really like it. Loved the Ubuntu NetBook ReMix on HP_Mini, but not taking to the current version much at all. LOVING Mint so far. My quarantined FireFox...

Very, very cool! How did you implement the display's active area shifting?

Pulled this Card/Adapter out of storage to see if it might be a cloning target. Found my old thread about this one over at the MLA whilst searching for info on it: https://68kmla.org/bb/threads/e-machines-big-picture-card-w-mac-se-interconnect.32335/ Does anyone over here have one or seen info...

Interesting, I'd thought my Toshiba T3200 was a 386SX, but alas, it also is a 286/12MHz. 4 Gray (Orange Plasma) Scales at 720x400. April 1988 release, not bad compared to the year later introduction of the Luggable with 640x400 single bit display. Last time it booted, looks like I finally...

So cool, Orange Gas Plasma? ISA Slots?

So that's a 3x scaling of the actual Lisa screen, was playing with those numbers over the weekend. Was looking into the same over the weekend. Can't imagine it won't fit. Cable length usually makes positioning of the controller boards very flexible. That particular controller avoids the VGA...

So how many by how many pixels does this thing put on a 1080p screen?

Sounds like a plan! Does the Lisa board really output 1920x1080? In that case I'd really go for the Bare Metal Prototype Lisa III as it's better than TPD resolution and much faster than the real deal in acceleration mode. Zero point in making it look like original Lisa or Lisa II, IMO. Can...

OOPSIE! I thought it was outputting some custom resolution that fit 1080p, something on the order of 640x400 on the 'Books which is closer to 16:9. What resolution does it output? As far as the FDD goes, it looks like you might be able to install it behind a flip-down cover panel kinda like the...

Just gave up on buzzing connections on my much corroded MagicBus card. Can't locate the good one. So will be setting up the copy stand, taking pics of MagicBus and working from there in Illustrator just as I'm doing with FPD. I can then verify the layout by buzzing my Radius16 Accelerator. Do...

Nope, more like these from Radio Shack used as inspiration for a Lisa-like Lisa III makeover: Do either basic bezel form factor with a single, vertical Twiggy drive slot in place of the 8" FDD slot with the remainder of the bezel a 1080p TPD. Yout 9.& inch LCD would align nicely with the...

Haven't looked, reverse engineering the card and equating PDS/MagicBus signals.
